You might be a Haynie if...

YOU MIGHT BE A HAYNIE IF...

you exercise moderately and sweat enough that  people think you just got caught in a rain storm/or just finished a shower.

people say privately or to your face that you ought to stop sticking your butt out.  Nope its just made that way.

your nose has a built in eye-glass shelf.  Seems like we never would have to push up our glasses with that big bump there to keep them up.

you are given the choice to take an academic test or go to a social event and you have really think about it.  The answer usually depends on the food.

it's time to leave but not EVERYONE is ready to go so you go do something else instead of just waiting a few minutes (like playing every scott joplin or in my case chopin song that you have ever learned before you leave the house).  Then your nearly irate spouse or child has to reign you into the car.  Really this stems from an intense hatred of waiting.  I'm thinking that if you could just fit the piano in the car I could wait there...

...You are obsessed with dental hygiene and don't understand people who are not.

...You know you are smarter than the rest of the human family, because Grampa said so.

...you were barn in the barn with the carn. And you understand that sentence.

...you recall "hash" with a certain sense of sickness and dread.

...you know and fear "fried oatmeal".

...you are still terrified of the Golly Watcher Hole.

...you are afraid to run over any bags or boxes in the road because there might be an animal in them.

Maybe some of these don't apply to the whole Haynie clan...

It's still a Lundgren trait.

...you get carsick from hearing any portion of "Hooked on Classics"

Ooooohhhhhh, I can't even listen to full symphonies playing anything without getting a little queasy! That explains why I prefer classical music with only one instrument.
